Features

The game inherits features from past Madden games. Other than the traditional 11-on-11, the game also features a 5-on-5 mode, returning from Madden NFL 09 All-Play on the Wii. The 5-on-5 mode can also be used in Season Mode.[5] The game also features GameFlow, a feature from Madden NFL 11 where the AI automatically selects the play depending on the game situation.[6] Players also can select whether or not to include GameFlow, or play with an arcade version. Standard versions are also available.[7] From Madden NFL 10, also from the Wii, is Spotlight Moment, where the game goes into slow motion whenever a critical event occurs.[8] [9] Also from the Wii games, players can Call Your Shots, where players press the Y button to call their own routes for the receivers.[10]
